Fruit for Thought. A Down to Earth Talk. Plant Your Fruit Now for Next Year

It's a very good time to plant fruit and the rest of your garden. The soil is moist and still warm giving shrubs, perennials, trees and fruit the optimum chance of establishing before we have winter dormancy. They can get their roots in the ground so they will be strong and ready to grow from April onwards next year.
